      “ 25% decline in Canadian visits to the US over the course of 2025 (Figure 1). This decline is economically meaningful. Tourism supports around 10 million US jobs and accounts for about 3% of GDP (US Department of Commerce 2026), while Canadians represented approximately 28% of the 72 million international visitors to the US in 2024. ” 
      Not a small number. Wondering how long before it goes back to “normal” if / when the relationship is healed.
